Time counts at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we've continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ's a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ's to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we've put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven't just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it's because of them we're continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ's, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.

    We were seated immediately. It took a long time for us to get our drinks. In fact, I get my soup before my drink, but I had to send it back, since it wasn't hot. The asparagus was a little over cooked, with the tips being crispy. The tri-tip had good flavor, but was a little chewy this evening. The hamburger was great, but it seemed like the portion of fries served with it was a little skimpy tonight. I know BJ's recently moved managers around, so we will see if there is a trend here.

    My soup came out the same time as my entree and wasn't hot. She took it back to microwave it after checking on us after our food was delivered. It had probably been sitting out waiting for the server to bring it out. Someone other than our server brought everything out together. BJ's used to have runners, but changed the way they operate. Our server did apologize at the end of our meal for the oversight. And sometimes why their formal tip amount gets cut back.

    Cheryl, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the timing issue with your soup and appreciate your understanding. Your experience is important to us, and we'll work on ensuring our service meets your expectations. We hope to provide a better experience next time!

    BBQ tri-tip dinner is a nice tasty deal on Thursday night. We also tried the Fish and chips. It was ok. The fish was a little greasy. Our server indicated that it is hit or miss. They do have good crispy seasoned chips/fries.

    Food was decent in most part! Service from wait staff was excellent. My steak was well well done despite asking for medium rare. They did give me a 25% on the meal but should have comped that 1 dish; they did however offer to replace but we were pushed on time. Deserts were good but slow. Overall would go again.

    We are sorry to read your recent experience with us was not up to par, Carl. We will work with our team to make sure this does not happen again.

    Service was friendly and prompt for a busy Thursday dinner hour. The BBQ tri-tip is usually a good cut of meat, though it was very chewy and lots of veins throughout tonight, but was tasty as usual. You can never go wrong with their soups as a starter. The asparagus was also perfect this evening. They have great tasting crisp fries too.

    I have a mixed review of tonight's food. The new $13 meals are great and a good value. We order a cheeseburger from this menu and the French fries were hot, a little crunch and great taste. They were able to prepare without salt, for a heart healthy alternative. Unfortunately, this evening the tri-tip portion was smaller than usual and was served with a very small portion of asparagus, that even the server had commented how small the portion was. The server brought out a small dish with a few more spears of asparagus. The food tasted great all around.
